Why do countries fly near each other's airspace.

We have seen multiple intercepts over the past 2 decades of planes intercepting bombers, recon aircraft, or even fighters. Usually, America and Russia. Su-35's and Tu-95s has been intercepted near Alaska. B-52s has been intercepted near the black sea. A Su-35 intercepted a P-8 Poseidon. There may be others I'm not aware of but, What's the point of flying near others airspace? Any fears of starting a war?

If a plane jettisons its fuel tanks, could a Fox 3 missile possibly track the tanks instead of the plane?

When the missile enters ARH mode, and locks the target up, is it possible that if a jet dumps fuel tanks, the missile will get confused. The missile might track the bigger target. But wonder if this could work.

No fan of Palpatine, but this fight is now one of my favorites from the Clone Wars show. HE WAS LAUGHING. HE was enjoying beating up his old apprentice. The entry was insane, 4 kills by choking NOT EVEN LIFTING HIS HAND. Palpatine was like, "don't forget who's boss". Loved this scene. PEAK PALPATINE.

PALPATINE UNLEASHED.

The information was split between Ashoka and Captain Tarkin (at the time.) These lanes could have been used to launch surprise attacks on Separatist home worlds or Republic home worlds (if the Seppies got the info which they didn't). What did the Republic even use these for? All Ashoka had to do was tell the council (as she promised) and Tarkin tell Palpatine and they share with each other. Did the Republic ever use these lanes?

  • PS: I think Thrawn might of used one of these.

If you watched the Bad Batch, you would know that Hera Syndulla and Omega were pretty good friends, AND Omega did go to join the rebels in the end of the Bad Batch, so it'll be nice that they could meet up again after the Empire in season 2. Only thing is finding someone to act as her, unless they use CGI, which often looks weird.
